Do the wipes hang out of the dispenser (like in the picture) or is there a cover over it you can open and close? How do they not dry out if there is no cover?

If you put them directly in there they do. We always keep them in the plastic packaging that they come in. If you have the huge refills then they will dry out. I have used them though and just put them in a big ziploc bag inside of the dispenser.

Here is my experience - hope this helps: The wipes do hang out the bottom of the dispenser so they are easily accessible during diaper changes (there is not a cover). It was designed to easily and quickly grab a wipe or diaper with one hand (vs. fumbling to open a package) and keep one hand safely on the baby while they are on the changing table. The wipe that hangs out the bottom of the dispenser will dry out over time but the wipes inside the package will stay moist. Given that newborns go though 8-10 diapers per day, the amount of wipes used is quite high and when a wipe is pulled from the dispenser the tip may be dry but the majority of the wipe will be moist.

they do... I pretty much have stopped using the wipe holder because it is too much work to keep the wipes wet. However, the diaper part works perfect for me and makes it handy.

I haven't had any issues. I cut a small hole in the refill bag, large enough to pull the wipe thru. When I pull a wipe out, I simply tuck the tip of the next one back up. No loss of wipes.

Only part of the wipe you have sticking out will dry out. It's not a major issue with me as I love the bobee! It has been very handy to have.

The ones pictured is what I purchased is in a box on a roll, so you are not able to put them into a dispenser. But check cause I think they also offer the bags in rolls and those should not be a problem to put into a dispenser. Hope this is helpful. Btw, good bags - great size too.

No there's no cover, but the stack on top of each other and if they are in a drawer it doesn't matter. If they are left out, a hand towel, a piece of foil, or cut a piece of cardboard cover it with a pretty wrapping paper and make a cover. I like the trays a lot and think they are worth extra effort to protect the top tray. NJD

Yes, the ones I got are. I have purchased some wipes that aren't and they do dry out before you can use them . These are the good ones.

I use the thirsties covers. I lay the cotton diaper on the cover then fold it to fit and snap the cover closed. Easy as that!

The top compartment is for wipes, but does not warm them, keeps them moist and everything together.And by the way... Love mine! if your at all in need or are an organized person, this is for you! Mine was brand new and everything was packaged great, all pieces were there, and nothing broken. Great invention!!

I think so. There appears to be an air tight seal around the top of the lid. I have one upstairs and one downstairs, and only use them intermittently at this point (1-2x a week?) and I have never had a dry wipe come out. Even when I used them both multiple times every day (newborn...) I never had an issue with dry wipes. I disagree with the other answer - if you're using the wipes frequently then you're constantly taking the top (potentially driest) wipe out. The only way these would dry out is if you leave the top open when not in use. Also it's virtually impossible to close the lid on a wipe - they come out nice and clean without pulling other ones out. I always had that issue with the plastic wipe containers - part of a wipe sticks out and I can't close the lid all the way, which leads to drying out wipes...

I have also had that same problem with other wipes that I have bought. I have found that the new Cottonelle container keeps their wipes moist a lot longer then any of the other containers that are out there. I can't say that they stay moist for very, very long periods of time because my family uses them on a regulars bases. I would say that the Cottonelle container is your best option on the market at this time. I hope this helps.

No the covers don't come off. They stay nice wiping them with a damp cloth.

I originally put a container of wipes and extra diapers, cream, etc. in the top drawer. It is a fairly large drawer. Eventually I found that I needed more room for clothes so I brought in a shelving unit that I had in another room and used that for diapers, wipes, etc. I also have a wipes warmer that has to be plugged in (not really a necessary item IMO but I still use it). So it helped to have the wipes container on a shelf and not in the drawer.

You can use the kind that comes with the dispenser. However, I use the Kleenex hand towels--they are softer and more absorbent.

I am not sure as I mainly use them in the bathroom...they are flusable and that is why I use them there...I prefer other types of wipes for the kitchen

In my opinion, yes. I've never had wipes go dry in this box, but then again, I do use it every day and refill it about twice a week. If the wipes did start to dry, it would be very easy to spray in some boiled-cooled water (to help stop mold) to keep wipes moist between uses.

It's actually one package and you can reseal the opening in the front and take one Lysol wipe as needed. The wipes are not individually wrapped but they do stay moist inside that one package.

Yup! I use cloth wipes too. I accordion fold them so they still pop out and I find this container holds up much better than my previous ones

As you look at the picture of the holder, the center part extends out somewhat and if you keep the loose end of the toilet paper inside that flap, your dog or cat cannot grab it. It's easy to do, just turn the paper roll the correct way to hide the loose end. There is not a top to totally cover the paper.
